School District Announces New Make-up Days

Because of the extreme weather this winter, East Penn has to take away some vacation days from students to make up what they lost in snow days.

At last night's meeting of the East Penn Board of School Directors, the Board approved a new set of make-up days due to days lost from inclement weather.

As a result, schools will remain closed on Feb. 18 and Feb. 21 for the President’s Holiday, but other days were added. The school calendar has two built-in days for the first snow days of the season, the rest need to be made up.

The snow day and its corresponding make up day are listed below:
